“I have always been a real sleeper,” shared the Hollywood star, but added that after the menopause, “I went through a particularly bad time with it.

'There were nights where my fear – I thought it just meant:' Oh, you won't be able to sleep because you don't have enough progesterone or whatever. '' '

The mother of two persecuted: 'I would just wake up [and] I would be crushed with fear that I have never had in my life.

'And I would be in bed thinking about every mistake I have ever made, the feelings of every person I have ever hurt, such as, you know, you know – and I would be on six hours. It was crazy. I feel that I will hopefully be on the other side. '

'I just think it is crucial for us to have community around these difficult things. If we have small children, we are not ashamed to say: “I have a problem with my toddler.”

“Or:” How do you draw them clean? ” But for some reason, when it is around this phase of our lives, it will be a strange or bad thing.
